What is What is what-is? : a study of Parmenides' poem about?

This Book Interprets The Poem By The Pre-socratic Philosopher, Parmenides, In A Way That Differs Fundamentally From Traditional Interpretations. While Some Recent Studies Show That The Poem Uses The Word Is As A Copula Rather Than A Substantive, A Close Analysis Of The Greek Text Shows That Parmenides Did Not Deny The Reality Of A Plurality Of Sense Perceivable Objects, But Argued That Each Is An Individual Homogeneous Unity That Emerged From A Mixture Of Opposite Elements.--jacket.
